Evaluating Resistance of MCML Technology to Power Analysis Attacks Using a Simulation-Based Methodology

Paolo Ienne, Yusuf Leblebici, Zeynep Toprak Deniz, Francesco Regazzoni

This paper explores the resistance of MOS Current Mode Logic (MCML) against attacks based on the observation of the power consumption. Circuits implemented in MCML, in fact, have unique characteristics both in terms of power consumption and the dependency ...
